Opinion:
Wix.com stock declined today after the company reported earnings before the bell this morning. The company missed on their EPS expectations, but was able to beat on their revenue expectations. The revenue showed some good signs of growth on a y/y basis. The gross margin is very impressive, but it probably doesn't cost a lot for them to produce their product. Their expenses come from more of their operating side of things, rather than their cost of their revenues. Wix.com reported a loss on income in this quarter, which has been a common morale of the story for the company. With only a couple profitable quarters in the history of the financial statements for Wix, it is no surprise to see this. The thing that surprised me was the cash used for capital expenditures. They seem to be spending a lot of money still investing back into the business. This is very interesting for the fact that the company has been around for a decade and a half. However, I feel like competition is tight in this space with no room for error. That's why Wix has to put up a lot of money to keep operations fluid. The company does look better than this earnings report shows. Wix.com is currently trading at around 3.01 P/S and a P/B ratio of 26.22 (high growth company). The revenue is currently growing at around 28% (TTM) and shows some good growth rates on forward earnings. Wix.com has more cash on hand than debt too, which is a good sign and maybe turning towards stable profitability. Personally, I see this one as a little iffy. It is hard to grasp what exactly the companies intentions are. I have heard from people using this site, that it can be difficult, but is also more safer than competitors. I am going to stay away from this one, just because of the high risk I see still. I do see a little bit of upside however, but that won't come for a while. If you are interested in buying, put this as a long-term play for some upside in the future.
